Missy and Simone C, my advice would be to read up as much as you can. Try and educate yourself. Ask lots and lots of questions beforehand. Ask Kim in the hypnobirthing section for advice. Have you read Marijke's VBAC story yet? She had a great VBAC with a midwife.

Missy what did you have 1st time round? I know Dr P was fine with me attempting vbac...until the previa..and even then he sais we'd see if the placenta moved. By 30 odd weeks he told me to let it go...so perhaps if the stars align we may be able to do it:)

Was nice chatting to you again! Do you know the sex of your baby yet?

Hi

I'm 19 weeks :)

I'm also with Dr. Potgieter....

Speak to him and Michelle Van De Westhuizen(midwife / doula).

Pls keep in touch

Wow Missy you have a good memory! How far preggies are you now? Had the placenta previa last time...so the vbac was a no-go.

I doubt a gynae will support the vbac at this stage, but I'll see what happens as the pregnancy progresses. Yip still with Dr P. And yourself?

Thanks Deja!

Simone, congrats on your pregnancy. Maybe ask Kim in the Hypnobirthing category as well. It might be a good idea to search for a midwife and doula in your area.

Hi Simone C

I remember you, you also from PE like me... The last we chatted you were preg with your second baby and hoping for a VBAC.

Are you still with Dr. Potgieter?

I'm preg with my 2nd one now.

I think you should approach your gynae and hear what he/she says about VBAC2 - once you have a caregiver who supports you you can take it from there but if his/shes not going to support you then you going to have to find someone who will.
